Okay. Firstly, we'll be using the Game Time +0% modifier for advantages and disadvantages like Luck that have use rates rated in play time, due to the nature of the play medium.

Celjabba: That's fine. I'd imagine you were probably one of the guys that built the Jump Drive, then? As a side note, you'll want to list your Mechanic (Jump Drive) and Navigation (Hyperspace) skills; they're used along with Navigation (Space) and Piloting for activating the FTL jump drive. At the moment, you've got defaults of 17 and 11 for them, respectively. What does Hyperspecialization do, though? I don't recognize it; is it from Power-Ups: Perks (which I haven't got)? I notice a +5 bonus above what your skill and talent would be otherwise; does it simply grant +5 while not letting you purchase/default to other specialties? Does it give a specialty of a specialty?
